What's With The Solemn Face?

A Toque Macaque  Monkey/Macaca sinica I photographed a little while ago.  These ones I see in Krurnegala belong to the subspecies  Macaca sinica aurifrons  and are generally called Dusky Toque Monkey. Posted for Camera Critters.

    The monkey's face does appear to be solemn. Is this how this species always looks?

    Macaca sinica aurifrons. Such a big name for a small fellow. Good capture of the facial expression. Thanks for visiting my camerqa critters posting.
